I live outside of US, on disability pension which is way below the average income here, but I can do keto. My usual weekly diet is : 2 of 2lbs whole chicken , 1lb beef necks, 30 eggs, 7oz goose fat, 2lbs chicken/turkey liver/hearts, 4lbs frozen cauliflower, tea,ginger for total of 18 USD for 7days. Btw keto is working started on 490lbs now 400lbs after 5months with no exercises at all.
Csaba Köböl wonderful!! Keep up the good work, a day at a time! Iâm sure youâre feeling much better since your body is fat adapted!
AWESOME. I'm rooting for you.
Awesome
3/4 cup cheese 2 eggs. Use as a pizza substitute .awesome
Wow! Congratulations!
For anyone that absolutely loves veggies & need them cheap, the Dollar Tree sells frozen Picsweet brand veggies...asparagus, broccoli, brussel sprouts, green beans...etc. I live alone so it's been a life saver for me!
You are the fucking mvp for this comment!
Awesome
tu mu wow! Great tip!
Oh my you just won the internet! This is a great tip.
99 cent store also has produce and veggies.
I go to a grocery store everyday and look for marked down meat to freeze. It helps me save so much!
Keto 365 seems like a lot of work to save a few bucks.

@@Toohot2handle758 gas money too, but what ever, some people have fun shopping
One of my super markets Mark's down meat on Sunday night because the expiration date is midnight Sunday .
I will try that. Hamburger is up on prices right now.
This is October 2020. Jennifer
This makes me more confident with starting Keto Iâm only 16 and I have a house full of family that arenât going keto so itâs just me and Iâm tempted to eat a bowl of lucky charms rn but itâs been 3 days and Iâm still clean
Update: even tho I am not keto anymore( I am plant base) this can still work, but I just wanted to put a warning for my younger people out there, doing diets like this can cause issues in the long run like your relationships With food, and I suffered from that and body dysmorphia. All I wanted to say is, please love yourself and be careful with these type of eating habitsâ€ïž
Hang in there
Minnie Smith thank you so much
Mymyxx I admire your independence and commitment!!
Ayla H. Are you serious! Thatâs amazinggg! And I gave in yesterday night and had a burrito đ but Iâm back up and starting my keto once again. What did you do for work out if u did work out during keto?
Celeste Gober thank you so much, but I gave into stress yesterday and had a burrito but I am back into keto today
My husband and I started keto a few months before he lost his job. Our grocery budget is actually much lower on this diet than it was while eating carbs, starches, and sugars.
Tori Carrillo keto if very filling, so I can totally see how youâre actually saving money. High carb foods make you want to eat more and often! Plus youâre skipping out on a lot of snacks!
@@GraceBelen it can be very filling. if I eat 1000 calories worth of eggs, I can only get in about 500 calories worth of other foods before im stuffed. If im eating various proccessed foods I can get in about 3000 calories before im stuffed, so at least with the large amount of eggs, I only eat about half the food
@@mythicalprayer1316 are you kidding 1000 cal in eggs . That's remarkabe
Decided to start KETO 4 days ago. My husband and I are making that change. Heâs a New York Italian, so heâs dying without his carb filled pizzas and pastas, but we want to change for the better! Iâm getting that nasty Taste in m mouth already, and I think thatâs a good sign lol. Plus, I went a little crazy and spent over $300 on groceries. Yes. I said $300. This has really helped me tremendously, thank you so much to you both! Iâm currently 220 after 90 radiation treatments and also have hypoglycemia on top of it. Iâve started working out everyday to be stronger than my tumor! Bless you all and keep pushing! Because if others can do it, you can, TOO!
Swedish Metal good luck to you!
Swedish Metal not sure if this will help your husband (hopefully he has stuck with it and his carbs are gone by now anyway) but when we have pizza parties at work I just scrape the toppings off and throw the crust away. Once the toppings are off it doesnât look appetizing anymore. Add a nice salad and he should feel good. You have the power to get well. Watch some Dr. Berg videos too - they really helped me. Best of luck to you both!
Jm Dow Oh yes dr Berg is fantastic! He actually told me today heâs only eating the toppings, I was so proud of him! Thank you for your help! (:
@@GothicConservative you should make him keto versions of those foods. After he tries the keto versions, he won't miss the pasta or the bread.
You go, girlđ„đ„
RECIPE: I looove cabbage and heres my favorite keto way. Use bacon fat or cook bacon to add later to cabbage. Rough chop cabbage in 1 inch pieces. Add to hot fat and saute on medium-med hi heat. Add seasonings like dry herbs, parsley or lemon seasoning. once the water is all cooked out this is where the magic happens. Go full blast High temp and try to caramalize some bits and edges of the diced cabbage(no burning). Minimal stiring for extra toastiness. & when its nice and golden brown... drop in some heavy cream to make a little saucy. đ U could even put it in a oven safe dish, top with some cheese for a fatty nutritious casserole. Its addicting. You wont want to stop eating it. Pro tip: if you have nutritional yeast you can add it after the heavy cream and it will thicken up nicely.
D B thank you so much for this!!!
yes! and added some curry powder Amazing! TY :)
This is my favorite! I just add and caramelize onions.
Yes!!! And lettuce with low carb salad dressing! Shop at aldi ppl. U CAN afford keto.
Bags of coleslaw already cut can simplify it a bit too.
As someone who lives an hour away from Kerry and a farmer's wife, thanks for promoting kerrygold sir!!
I've learned to finesse Keto on a budget. I'm disabled and I am on a fixed income.
Some of my Keto staples from Walmart are:
10 pound bag of leg quarters (.60 a pound)
4 lb bag of of Tilapia (10.36)
2 pk of butter (8 sticks for 3.49)
Great Value Salsa, (no added sugar .99)
Frozen brussel sprouts (12oz for 57 cents), 12oz string beans for 77 cents and 12oz broccoli for 99 cents.
Sardines 15 oz 1.29
Tuna 4 count 2.58
Pork Skins 1.78 5oz
Pork Shoulder 1.54 pound
32 oz cheese 4.88
Eggs 36 count 2.00
Ground turkey 3lb roll 6.24
Frozen extra small shrimp 24oz 9.97
I have more, but you get the idea lol.
ProudMama97 wow girl you are rocking it! Great job
Wow your walmart is a lot cheaper than mine in hawaii đ
To put it in perspective......4 sticks of butter is 4.50. 12 eggs are $3
@@AdrianBorumI am in Virginia and we have butter that cost those kinda prices too, but the Walmart brand is the only one in my budget lol. I know the cost of living is high in Hawaii.
I saw Virginia in your reply, check out aldi they have killer prices on frozen tilapia and salmon.
I am the only one that eats keto in my household of 4 so I make me a casserole or a soup and I can eat off of that for 4-6 meals normally! I don't do anything fancy, just whole ingredients!
I adore chicken soup in the power cooker. A warm cup with a little pink salt. Is SOOO good. Add whatever veggies you like and you have a meal on hand at all times.
Melinda Jeffers mom of 6 here I typically keep my family low carb now to make things easier and just omit carbs from my plate so we can still eat together . Except for lunch since I skip normally so they can eat whatever. Itâs tricky but doable
@@pilarrivera4146 I did that when I wasn't doing one meal a day. I have to really make all the food count so I can eat it in one sitting.
I literally share every keto budget videos because I hear everyone telling me "I can't afford to do keto" "oh your so lucky you can afford to do keto" lol đ I hate it. I'm like lower middle class... Too rich for food stamps too poor to see a doctor đ
For a lot of people that have families that aren't eating keto, that can be where the expensive part comes in. For me, I was the only one doing keto. My husband and kids weren't so with having to shop differently for the family, it can get to be too much. Then again, I have never been "middle class" at all lol. Always been a poverty level family.
@@nigayustealmyshoes I think most people think they're in poverty even they're not, you may be middle class, or lower middle class.
@@charliechan6892 I have 2 kids and make about 600 a month living in a section 8 apartment. I'm pretty sure I'm poverty level đđŒ Maybe some have that issue of not knowing the difference but not me. I wish I was middle class lol.
i do uber full time, its hit or miss on the daily, so im probably making under minimum wage most of the time, been keto for over a year, i goto walmart for eggs thats a staple in keto,... butter and bacon from costco.. still the cheapest version of life,, im so simple to do eggs nacon butter an cheese, for peanuts.. i fired my doctor, he said i was gonna die if i did 8 eggs a day,, its been a year im still alive
@@ketolifestyle68 Don't let Uber driving ruin your life! It did mine! Now I can't even drive at all anymore! Part of it was sugar binging, partly dirty (non)"keto", partly some issue I have no clue what was happening to my body (I think it was "diabetes"/"metabolic syndrome"/"heart disease"/"whatever-they-want-to-call-high-carb-highly-processed-poison-diet"), partly (but I wonder if it was mostly) lack of electrolytes. especially magnesium!
I eat waaaaaayyyy less on Keto than any other way of eating. Iâm so satiated I just donât need as much food as I used to. Keto is cheaper when you think of it like that. It can get expensive when you buy specialty items and or do a lot of Keto baking.
Kitty if youâre deep into ketosis those are the great affects đ€ you start to get less hungry than you used to be
This is so true, Iâve been 1 week keto and on the mornings I have bacon and eggs I have to remind my self to eat lunch where before I was thinking about lunch by 12pm
@@EJ-vn4pv keto doesnt require you to remember to eat. You eat when you are hungry not because its 12 noon for lunchtime.
Ya for sure, Iâve been conditioned to eat at a certain time rather than eat when Iâm hungry
@@EJ-vn4pv Yes I agree that we have been conditioned to eat at certain times based on the standard american diet. But keto tends to change this to when you're hungry. I was surprised because I enjoy breakfast and have always awakened hungry ready to eat. Not as much now. I never feel hungry before bed.
Guys!!! Thank you for doing this video. So many people need to learn that Keto does not have to be expensive. If you can afford grass-fed meat and organic everything, great! If not, itâs super simple to eat healthy on a tight budget. No excuses. Eating Keto from Walmart is still 100 times better than the Standard American Diet. â€ïž
agreed! My goal was to drop weight. Didn't matter where the cow used to live. lol
@Sara Karl everything is apparently linked to cancer.
@@lorib5323 hahaha where the cow used to live....hilarious
But why is healthier to eat grain feed animal than another type of diet ? Like mediterranean diet that is a mix of animal,beans,nuts,fruit,etc
If no one mentioned. The yellow tags at Walmart are clearance because the date is expiring. I buy that stuff up and either make sure i use it immediately or (especially if it is a family pack) separate vacuum pack and freeze. I have an upright freezer usually packed with pre-portioned meals. I cook in bulk also.
This was refreshing to watch. My fiancĂ© and I are on Keto together and we are getting married this year. Being on a budget when it comes to groceries is an absolute must. Thank you for sharing this. Canât wait to see the other episodes in this series!
*Thank you for showing us that eating keto doesn't have to break the bank.*
Btw...If you download the walmart savings catcher app and scan the little thing(barcode thing at the register) every time you get groceries, it will search through all the ads and you get any money back for any advertised sales at other stores. Then you can use the credit on your groceries đ You're welcome đ
Yoga And Doritos do all stores participate or is it like where some stores price match and others donât?
Walmart changed this on Jan 1st. You can no longer scan barcodes on receipts. Only using Walmart Pay gets you money back. I hate that because I used my scanned receipts in the app as a grocery list and enjoyed the cash back.
@@marciec6859 mine works... You scan the little square on the machine at the register and it loads your receipt into your app. You then go in the app and submit receipt. If you have savings on the items you purchased it will take the money off your next purchase the next time you're at the register and scan the barcode when you check out. They did it so people don't find receipts on the ground and scan them. It is different, but same result.
@@sadieesther9721 it's any advertised sale. Walmart just searches for you
I tried this about a year ago. For about 3 months I entered my receipts and never received one penny back. Maybe it's because I don't buy big brands.
Why is your walmart so peaceful. I just canât bring myself to go to the walmart where I live. It looks like your walmart has way better stuff too
They probably went in the morning, hardly anyone does grocery shopping in the morning
If you go from 9pm to 7am, it's super quiet.
Thankfully the one I go too is also like that.
Every Walmart is different.
Go in the morning, not many people shop at walmart in the morning because most people who go there are poor/on food stamps so those people don't work they are up all night and sleep til 2pm.
My husband was justy diagnosed with type 2 diabetes.. We're trying keto you get his sugar down and both of us lose weight! Love your vlogs!
This is one of my favorite videos yall have done. It definitely put into perspective how easily to feed a family on a budget while staying keto.
I shop Aldi a lot. It's budget friendly. I eat a lot of eggs, tuna with mayo, 80/20 ground beef seasoned of a variety of ways. I spend $50-$80 for a week for a family of 4.
Butter Bob has a video for homemade mayo using olive oil and egg. Olive oil can be bought by the gallon at Sam's. It's not extra virgin, but Dr. Phinney had a lab check it and it was real olive oil too.
Would you be willing to share your shopping tips? We spend way too much on groceries.
All I can say is we only have a certain amount we can spend after bills and we have to make it work, so we do. We eat a lot of eggs and I shop Aldi. Just doing that saves a lot of money. There are several Aldi Keto grocery hauls on CZcams.
@@mariazamora-qr4mg I don't know how to help you. I noticed a lot of good ideas here in the comment section.
KANDIDLY KRISTA Aldi has great Wild Caught Salmon.
Thank you Matt and Megha for making this video! There are sooo many people trying to make ends meet and still lose weight! Overweight people on low incomes have a tendency to eat lots of processed foods to stretch out meals to be full, families to feed, and to save money. (Pasta, Mac and cheese, boxed or prepackaged prepared foods)
I've been Keto for seven months and I shop at Walmart. I'm disabled and shop mainly the perimeter of the store and because most of the processed foods are in the middle of the store, I am saving so much money by not buying those items anymore. Keto can be done on a budget, and you can be successful. I'm down 43 lbs since June, 2018.
Happy New Year 2019! Keep up the good work everyone!!
Agreed!
Susan Hampton wow! Congratulations, youâre doing great !!
One of my favorite videos! Iâm learning with every video I watch. I have 25 lbs to lose Iâm 5â4â 154lbs. Iâm 48 and have just lost my way. Iâm very active but need to stop making excuses and eat like it matters. No more fast food or take out! I have my grocery list easy and meal plan in motion for the first time in over a year. Thanks for the inspiration!
I was on keto for around a year but slipped recently and have been wanting to get back into it. Your channel is so informative and easy to watch. Thank you for uploading! Also youre super cute together.
So I went off keto the last three weeks. In 12 days i spent $59 on taco bell. Only twice did i buy for more than one person. So that prompted me to stop all eating out for January! So keto is definitely cheaper than eating crap.
How the hell do you spend that much at taco bell!?
@@MrMannie1524 6 trips. 3 people.
@@erindoesthethings đŻđŻđŻ that's alot of tacos!
@@MrMannie1524 we dont eat tacos. Its all pricier stuff. But $60 for 3 people in 12 days
Yes every time my husband and I eat there it's at least $25. When you get multiple things that aren't cheap, it adds up quickly!!! But my husband is the size of a beast (in a good way) and has a huge appetite lol so that probably has something to do with it.
I guess because most Keto influencer also preach that you have to eat whole grass feed beef and organic and only high quality fat sources and fresh etc.... if you do all that it gets VERY expensive very fast... Just compare your egg deal VS 60 organic, free range, only proper feed eggs. Not to mention the beef. Nice to see you keeping it real and within a budget. I am living in Ireland and thinks tend to be more on the expansive side here as well, but meal prepping and being willing to eat the same stuff several days helps a lot.
Yeah, I was thinking the same :D.
when you start hearing grass-fed.. you go oh boy and then wait! that is not good enough now, it has to be grass finish too!
don't get those cheap eggs full of hormones only high omega 3 pastured eggs!
then stuff can get expensive really fast.
I find it not much more expensive if you look for deals
I also live in Ireland too and count yourself lucky with our produce. Europe is also good. I'm glad that the standard here is extremely high in quality and the Irish are well known for it.
@@w0ode198 yeah, that's true. Even Aldi and Lidl have very high quality Irish meat for reasonable prices. Still high compared to other EU countries but it's ok.
@@Chronokatan I do understand what you were saying before hand. It's very easy to get rapped up into trying to have a superior clean Keto lifestyle. I just try to be clean as possible and that my wallet can afford. I make my own bone broth, and I budget 7.50 a week into a Keto kitty for my cod liver oil bottle, collagen, flours etc. I am a student at the moment so I have to watch my pennies too!
Finally a video that stays on a budget like they said they would!! I've watched at least 25 videos and they all ended up costing more than they said, thanks guys!! I see a lot of videos say for example " meals for under $5 a day, and it ends up being $5 a meal!!"Theres a difference!!
I LOVED THIS VIDEO! Shopping list : check âïž, prepared meals : check âïž, macros and calories : CHECK âïž
Thank you so much!
I spend $300-$400 a month for my family of 5, only I do keto in my family. I mostly shop at Winco, Walmart, grocery outlet. And occasionally Costco. It is possible to do on a budget!
Coupons.
I spend about $30 per person a month
On keto my family of 6 is $300 a WEEK @ winco. I don't know how everyone is getting it so cheap. Maybe only eating meat and eggs?
I give them credit they acknowledged the inferiority of some of those products as you get what you pay for. With that said, inferior keto foods still better than sugar-laden crap.
Literally you guys are my favorite! My transition on this keto journey has been so much easier thanks to you
This is the first Video I've watched of you two and I really liked it. Usually the kept vids are telling you to get very expensive hard to find items and supplements.
Thanks for remembering us real people that live on a budget.
I'm saving a lot of money on keto. I make my lunches for several days and take them to work so I don't splurge on eating out.
I hear people say often that they think eating healthy is expensive and then I remind them that when they cut out the junk food , soda, bad carbs and eating out that they will have the money to buy what is good for them. Really when people say that its expensive to eat healthy they really sound like they are making excuses to eat what's not good for them.
My mom wraps butter in foil before she freezes it. She says it helps prevent the butter from absorbing any smells in the freezer, which can effect the taste.
I leave mine in the original packaging I never have a problem I don't put it on the Shelf I put it up on the door
I put my cream cheese, shredded and sliced cheese, butter all of the above have never tasted any different
You dont have to really freeze butter. Most butter has a self life in the fridge for several months maybe longer. Depending on when you buy it and if it's on sale. The less time. So no need to do it if its fresher.
Foil also causes Alzheimers. They've been saying that for years. I would find a different fish. Like cod.
Twinkle Star theyâre talking about aluminum foil not a fucking fish m8
Will be giving keto a try again. My husband is always hungry so Keto was hard to stay on but Now I see Matt's meals I think this will work for my husband and family. Even the way you guys shopped today gave me Ideas to get my children hooked.
Thank you for this!! I'm a SAHM feeding a family of four on a keto lifestyle. Budget is KEY.
This is how I live:
Chicken, ground beef, eggs, butter, olive oil, and cheese form the bulk of my meals. There are two essential tricks. One is acquire a chest freezer so you can stock up on specials. The other trick is to watch the fliers issued by your local supermarket chains. You are looking for anything you consume regularly. When you see a great special on something you normally use, you buy as much of it as you will possibly use between now and the next time it comes out at that level of special. Ultimately 'everything' you buy will be bought at a great special price, bought in bulk. I live on a food budget of $5.00 a day. Shopping this way I save enough money that I can even sometimes afford to splurge on things like a big bag of coconut flour so I can do the microwave bread thing. Note that you can freeze eggs too.
You can freeze eggs đđđđ does it mess with the integrity?
@@RobynnNinjah Yes, you have to break the eggs first, then store the results in some sort of container. I crack the eggs in meal sized quantities, in my case six/eight eggs per freezer bag. I also beat them for use as an omlette prior to storing them. You will not get sunny side up fried eggs out of frozen egg, but for most cooking purposes, freezing them does no harm. It takes very little to thaw them out too. Fill a pot with hot water from a tap and drop the bag of frozen eggs into the water. A half hour later, you have thawed egg. You won't even have to wash the pot.
@@panpiper Thanks for the tip. Only that I would not cook them inside the plastic bag. Hot plastic would pass on chemical to the eggs friend.
@@ironnerd2511 not cooking, only thawing he says with hot water from the tap, not the stove. Good idea.
Why freeze eggs? Their shelf life is months.
I love this! More Megha vs Matt challenges please!
I love watching you prove what I'm always telling my friends when they say that can't afford to do this WOE. Dr Ken Berry says you can eat keto without splurging on all the extras that people think you need. Just starting somewhere is something
Found this very helpful. My 2 biggest issues with keto have been long term sustainability and making it affordable so it's nice to see videos like this
Got your cookbook for Christmas and itâs a fantastic reference for Keto meals. The book combined with your blog is the perfect source for recipes! All the best to you both for the next year. đ€
Love this new series. My new year includes getting back on keto and saving money. Thank you so much. Happy New Year đ
I'm new, 3 days in, and I love you guys! My family of 5 is doing keto and our budget is $360 a month.
This was a great refresher for ppl that have been doing keto for a while and has gotten away from the basics.Good way to start the year off.
Great job guys! I live in a small town of under 7,000 and our Wal Mart has the same deals. The 60 eggs are a staple when I go shopping. Pick several mornings and you would be shocked at how much expensive cuts of meat are marked down. It is doable. No excuses when it comes to cost.. Keep the videos coming.
I have been on a "low budget" keto diet for over a year. Walmart has frozen Walmart brand veggies for 88Âą where I live. I get every circular ad for my local grocery store and out the produce specials they have I will make it my veggie for the week. Sometimes they have avacados for 30Âą zuchinnis for .60 I'm always able to find a great deal at one of my towns stores, it also helps to look at local butchers to buy your meat in bulk mine sells ground beef for 1.88 a lb. I spend far less in this WOE than I did before keto
I like the bags you can just chuck into the microwave and throw butter into
I didn't know anything about keto.. I found this channel by swear mistake but thank God I did. After watching many videos I went keto with constant learning from. The channel. I started 2months ago and weight was at 290.. i am currently at 255 and feel great. Literally in was the guy that would eat an entire package of Oreos in one sitting. I now have very limited cravings and even my need to eat has gone way down. I was also boarder line diabetic not anymore.. I feel great just want to say thank you.. between this channel and goody beats I'm a keto fat burning machine..
Omg a sunny side up egg with crumbled ground beef sounds amazing!
This time of the year cabbage is really cheap. I will chop it up and saute it in bacon fat. Aldi has been a great place for me to shop. I am.hoing to try to put myself on a budget and see what happens. There heavy whipping cream is super cheap.
Stacy Lamb I love Aldi, itâs such a great place to shop.
I love that store as well! Just have to be careful to stick to the true bargains & not be distracted all the fancier options that you haven't tried yet (which is always my downfall lol)
When cabbage is cheap it is a perfect time to make saeurkraut. Super easy and better than store bought.
I love their HWC also lately they have had grass fed beef for 4.99 a pound which is freaking amazing!
Aldi is much cheaper than Walmart. I'm broke but I can get much healthier food for less.
Great video! My goals this year include starting my debt free journey and I don't want to compromise my keto lifestyle in order to do that.
Faith in Ketosis thatâs great! Do you make videos or post about this stuff on social media? Would love to follow you on your platforms! I too am working on both Keri and becoming debt free/saving for my future!!
Lila Garvin I have considered doing just that but haven't started yet. I may get a channel going for 2019 since this could be beneficial to many.
We do Keto while trying to become debt free as well !
Lila Garvin Check out Kim @ freetofamily on CZcams. Sheâs KETO & also gives how to live debt-free advice.
I Dave Ramsey and keto too! I am now debt free and down 60 lbs for 2018! This year is savings and down more weight!
So glad you are able to inspire and show us a new outlook on Keto, thank you so much!!!

@Yiga, just came across your comment, and wondering how you are doing now?
Wrights bacon that is ends and pieces cost half the price per oz of any other bacon walmart sells. It has a lot of fat but I save the bacon fat and don't buy any other oil other than olive oil, so it's a win win situation.
@DearMe1981 Here they sell it at Walmart. www.walmart.com/ip/Wright-Brand-Bacon-Ends-and-Pieces-48-oz/10533732
We have been buying that for years and we buy even more now that we are on keto. Great buy!
Sam's carries Wright brand in 4 lb packages for $17
@@hopemccoy thanks... that's a great deal! I LOVE that bacon.
That's what we get!
Recently I bought a 10 lb bag of leg quarters for $4.39, a large onion for .60 and a head of cabbage for $1.88 and a bag of mixed frozen veggies (cauliflower, broccoli, carrots, squash) for 2.99, and a head of garlic for .25, I made a huge pot of chicken veggie soup for just over $10.00, plus spices I already had, and got over15 pints of soup out of it which were my lunch for 2 weeks. Keto on a budget can be done..
I'm a newbie to the KETO world. Was forced into this by my recent diagnosis of Type 2 Diabetes. I'm on track losing weight feeling better. I'm having a hard time shopping for my self and my kids.
You guys are awesome and brought me hope that this is possible without breaking the bank. Love yalls format will continue to watch. Just shared your video to my wife. Going shopping tomorrow fingers crossed.
Love your videos! I see people say ALL THE TIME how expensive Keto is. Keto is not expensive. Trying to recreate junk food to make it Keto gets expensive! Whole, real, unprocessed food is the way to go!
I'm new to keto. I am spending most of my food budget for my husband and kids and I get left over money (if there is any) to try to do keto. This video was helpful!
You can freeze spinach & broccoli so if you find a good deal with fresh get them
kittycat0876 Kroger always has 10 for 10 chopped spinach(frozen)
I add butter and cream cheese and prep for about 3 days! Jackpot!
Thank You so much! This gave an entire dofferent point of view on Keto financially. I recently quit my job because school and working was too stressful and i thought i couldnt afford to live off keto but this video helped tremendously!
This was a great video! I agree that ketoing on the cheap is easy to do. The foods seem expensive but it is more filling and keeps you from splurging on fast food and eating out. Keep up the great videos!
i love that you are doing this, we are all on different budgets yet can still do Keto.
Meat, frozen veg n eggs, that is usually how I plan it out when I'm broke, like right now lol. HAPPY NEW YEAR KC FAM!!!!
WaistingDownTime -Happy New Year, hope you come into some money.
@@Photologistic Happy new year! lol a little broke now, but I get paid on the 15th! #paychequetoaycheque #ispelllikethiscuzimcanadian
Watched you guys a while back as i was starting my keto journey. I lost 100 lbs in 7 months..keep up the good work and motivation homies
Great video! Iâm super new to the world of keto (as in I havenât yet started). Iâm doing my research, very interested & excited to start. I think ppl will always use money as an excuse but if weâre honest with ourselves we spend/waste money on unnecessary things all of the time. If u scale back on those things, the money can be used towards food if u cant find deals. Where thereâs a will thereâs a way. I love u guys & ur videos. Thank u!!
Most of my shopping is at WalMart. And yep, those big bags of broccoli are a staple! Cheap but nutritious and they taste great sauteed in butter or bacon fat. Bulletproof tea is delicious! Thank you both for the continued advice and encouragement. I'm down 15 pounds and, for the first time in my life, feel like my fitness goals are not only attainable, but almost easy. I wish I'd done this years ago.
I am on food stamps and I have been on a keto plan for 8 months with $97.00 a month budget. I eat real good and have clear up my skin from a severe skin infection and lost 53 lbs without having to diet. So cool! I do buy on Amazon for some products that are not in the local stores in a small community. I got monk fruit powder. I learned not to crazy on just buying package food that claim to be a good buy. Also I learned to my some condiments like I took full pickles and slice them and put half the juice and half the sliced pickles into a different glass jar and added 1/8 teaspoon of the monk fruit to the jar and placed in fridge for 3 weeks. The pickles for sweet enough to grind and make relish! Great for my chicken salad. Keto! đ inexpensive, fun, healthy ,and worth the over all health I have achieve! Thanks, you are the first site that got me on the right track to healing and health. Love you guys!
Hey! If you're still there I'd appreciate it tons of you could elaborate on what exactly you are to sustain a keto diet on that budget, would be tons of help!
Thanks so much! Iâm going back on keto and another goal for my year is to save as much money as possible this year. I like to go to Walmart because I use their order online app. Iâll swing by after work on Friday and within 15 minutes I have my groceries and heading home. I purchase them in advance on the app, which by the way does tell you specials and markdowns, and that way I can control what I actually spend and really think about what it is I do want to purchase the most. It saves me time and money. You guys have motivated me to strip my keto food budget down, which works with my spending goals for the year! Have a happy new year!
You guys are AWESOME, you think of everything one will find to put an "if" and a "but" to a diet. Thank you for doing this video extremely helpful and I appreciate them all. Keep them coming you guys
I'm excited for Spring to get here! I started Keto this past November results so far have been great. Now, I have plans for planting a "Ketogenic" garden. I am a big fan of freezing, dehydrating or canning my garden hauls each year. Veggies and fruits, fresh or frozen are getting more expensive, so I save a ton of money growing my own every year. I have limited yard space so I tend to get creative.
âĄđ„đ„Šđ¶đ„đ âĄ
i'm doing the same. plus foraging which i've done off and on when my black thumb of gardening strikes misfortune to my garden (i'm a bad gardener but i always have wild greens i can collect.)
Yeah guys the only different I do is buy grass fed ground beef for $6.99 at Kroger (4 meals) buy bulk chicken, bag of greens, they almost always have frozen broccoli and cauliflower for $1,and hard cheese and I spend about $25-$30 a week. Kroger is really good for Keto shopping.
Iâve been struggling to stay on Keto and happened to stumble across your CZcams channel. I am so glad I found you. New subscriber. âșïžđ€đ»
this video was super surprising & helpful. i actually just had a conversation with my coworker today and her problem with Keto was âitâs just too expensiveâ!
Thank you so much for your videos .I have Multiple Sclerosis and this diet helps me to actually feel better and loose weight too . I also want to shout out to all the amazing comments . I feel so happy . What an awesome way to start my year . Happy New Year to all!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Great video...My keto savings strategy is finding marked-down meats, where the sell by date is usually that day, and stock up on the meats I like to eat (I freeze what I won't cook that day).
Great, informative video. And I'm loving all the positive and supportive comments. You guys have created something wonderful here.
I work a part time min-wage job and i find that looking at different grocery ads and going on amazon help me find the best deals đ€
Great video! I think I could do 5 dollars a day but takes some planning. Since you both went under budget I would splurge on some cream cheese and cream...and maybe frozen cauliflower or broccoli. Making ground beef with a bit of cream/cream cheese adds a lot. Other days I would add Mexican spices to ground beef.
Frozen spinach is also pretty cheap
Id work on my debt with the saved money. If money is that tight, there's a reason.
Love you took the time to break down the costs. Real food = regulate blood sugar, insulin, hunger, and the budget. Love it.
This was a really good video showing the possibilities for people on a budget. Great work guys.
Been Keto since March 2018, and I love it. So glad I found you guys, great information. Now I need to talk my husband into letting me get your cook book the next time we are at Costco.
Love this! I get soooo tired of the old excuse that eating healthy is too expensive. Honestly, there is a cheap way of eating for every lifestyle. (Keto, vegan, paleo, etc.)
I couldn't read all of the comments. If I am repeating someone else, sorry. My husband and I are truckers. We tried keto last year. Several times, in fact. We start off great, but always get caught without. We pack lots of keto food into our truck. I try to prepare as much ahead as I can. But our tiny fridge/freezer won't hold much. We do have a micro, too. But, there have been several times when we have been running hard and didn't have time to restock. Or, we call ahead to a Walmart to make sure we can pull into their parking lot to shop without our truck getting booted or towed. Believe it or not, but we have been told no (rudely) many times. We do our best at the truck stops, eating bacon cheeseburgers w/o bun, or a grilled chicken salad, etc. But we get sick of eating the same thing every day. Then we wind up in the middle of nowhere, where you either eat what's there or you go hungry. I tried a keto trucker fb page last year. I left because they don't monitor what people post. They post stuff that contains corn or carrots, etc. The only fb page I use is Keto-Adaptation. I also like the recipes on ruledme.com. Then, I found you guys. So far, I really like the foods you present, especially the budget friendly stuff. Is there any way you could come up with something for us weary truckers?
Make it a priority to replace your small refrigerator with the Walmart 4' refrigerator freezer version!
I really like the way Megah says âDeliciousâ.
It's best to look at sale flyers and buy accordingly. If there is an awesome deal buy all that and store in a stand alone or chest freezer.
You can get way more fancy without really being that expensive. Eggroll in a bowl is not expensive at all. Im surprised they didn't do that
I love that Great Value has frozen broccoli florets for $1
This is great. This is basically what I bought to get me started for the year and make up some ground I lost over the holidays. Seeing you guys buy almost exactly what I bought helped me feel like I was on track again. For me it was eggs, bacon, ground beef, butter, blue cheese and a bag of coffee. I went for the higher quality stuff just because I got good deals. Also I'm lucky enough to live in Florida and belong to an amazing produce co-op, so I was able to get zucchini, spinach, red onion, squash raw pecans and almonds, asparagus and brussel sprouts for $20 for the week, but it actually lasts me two plus weeks. So my budget turned out to roughly $6 to $6.50 a day. Still totally doable and satisfying and lots of variety. Looking forward to the further videos.
THANK YOU! This is what I've been looking for! You break it down and make it easy on the $ ! I appreciate you!
I love this video. I greatly appreciate all of the content you put out and am very pleased that as you evolve to show better quality foods, increased selections and lots of recipes you haven't forgotten the many people that might not give this way of living a try due to cost concerns. I vividly remember a time when I would only have $70 to buy 2 weeks of groceries and had to carry it home on transit, so not a lot of heavy bulk items were possible. Keto has vastly improved my health and I love these videos that remind people that anyone can afford this lifestyle.
You guys are so cute i almost cried when the video started i mISSED YOU GUYSSS
Iâm binge watching your Keto vids....FINISHED DAY 1 YESTERDAY! You all are a Godsend! đ
This was great! I hear so much from friends I canât afford to eat healthy ! You priced them wrong.
Happy new year!
I have been living on Goya Sardines in Olive oil ($2.59 a can in the Philadelphia Walmart). I agree $2.59 for a small can of sardines is not necessarily cheap. However, quality is pretty good and I think it is very filling if paired with an avocado, 2 ounces of cheese and one slice of bacon. It sounds nasty, but it tastes good.
It's really good to do the same with tuna.
Wal mart carries a brand of sardines in the "kosher" section for 1.14 a piece. Best price I've found
Great idea. If you two listen to the Dave Ramsey Show or watch on CZcams. Then you will know, that so many people in the U.S. have some serious debt. So this is a great video. Thanks.
Love dave Ramsey ! We are doing the baby steps and on a serious budget while doing it.
Matt, your hair looks terrific at this length! ....you both do a great job giving people info., ideas and motivation.
Just starting Keto & ive watched 3 of your videos today. Your info is great! So helpful & things other people never point out!!! Butter (grass-fed) better tasting! Add butter to hot tea & heavy cream (whipped) to cold coffee drink! So great! Thanks sooo much!
I love this...thank you. I have been a pescatarian since July and find it challenging at times ss far and losing. Eating meat was easier but want to continue no meat. Can you please do something like this for a pescatarian. Fish and dairy is ok.
It's an overstatement to say that vegetables are out of the question. Canned greens are very cheap, about 50 cents a can (~3 servings) at Walmart. Fresh might taste better, but this video is all about compromise.
Their point was the cost per calorie not that people can't afford vegetables. A can of green beans for example might only cost $0.50 but it probably only has like 25 calories in the whole can. On the other hand a $2.50 pack of butter has probably a couple thousand calories. It's a way better calorie to dollar ratio.
All the micro-nutrients in vegetables are also in meat plus they are more bio-available. But having said that, canned veggies are fine nutrient wise.
@@MrDavidknigge
You are correct but the main thing that most keto friendly vegetables just don't really provide is many calories. Trying to get 2000 calories from green vegetables is almost impossible and would be a very expensive diet as well. Better to look at them as just a way to add variety to your meals.
I hate canned vegetable (except olives) but frozen are great and still way cheaper than fresh.
@@loganjones5766 But you also need micronutrients not just calories. Actually adding some low calorie foods can make you feel fuller because you feel like you're eating more.Eating a pound of butter and nothing else in a day will give you all the calories you need but won't be very satisfying for most people.
Just started Keto on Jan 25th with my daughter and this video is awesome! I've been watching all your videos (daughter recommended) haha and y'all are great! Thanks for all the information!
I am just starting keto and your videos are helping me get ideas of how to change my meals on a budget. Thank you Soo much
